Best options for heating an old victorian flat?
Situation: basically no heat (had some unvented natural gas heaters in front of decorative fireplaces, but they are unsafe and weren't legally installed). Unit is on the second floor of a 3 floor building, so forced air isn't an option. Gas inserts for the fireplace would require some big installation challenges (venting up through our chimney and the upstairs neighbors), possibly some structural work. Radiant floor heating is possible if I am willing to tear up my wooden floors, install the heating and reinstall the flooring. I have a couple of inexpensive space heaters (electric) in each end of the place which aren't really that helpful on cold days. I can ask my family to wear more sweaters. Beyond that?? Thanks for any insights!
You need a couple of large room ceramic type electric heaters, $400 to $600 each. Don't know what else you can do with limited wall, floor, ceiling access. Ones I have seen are mobile, so you can move from room to room. The tops and sides of these heaters are cool to the touch.
